Color Perception and Specification

• Light -> color perception• Human perception of color• Type of light sources• Trichromatic color mixing theory• Specification of color

– Tristimulus representation – Luminance/Chrominance representation

• Color coordinate conversion


Light is part of the EM wave

from [Gonzalez02]


Illuminating and Reflecting Light

• Illuminating sources: – emit light (e.g. the sun, light bulb, TV monitors)– perceived color depends on the emitted freq. – follows additive rule

• R+G+B=White

• Reflecting sources: – reflect an incoming light (e.g. the color dye, matte surface,

cloth)– perceived color depends on reflected freq (=emitted freq-

absorbed freq.)– follows subtractive rule

• R+G+B=Black

Human Perception of Color

• Retina contains photo receptors– Cones: day vision, can perceive color

tone• Red, green, and blue cones• Different cones have different frequency

responses• Tri-receptor theory of color vision

[Young1802]– Rods: night vision, perceive brightness

only• Color sensation is characterized by

– Luminance (brightness)– Chrominance

• Hue (color tone)• Saturation (color purity)

Color Hue Specification


Trichromatic Color Mixing

• Trichromatic color mixing theory– Any color can be obtained by mixing three primary colors with a

right proportion

• Primary colors for illuminating sources:– Red, Green, Blue (RGB)– Color monitor works by exciting red, green, blue phosphors using

separate electronic guns• Primary colors for reflecting sources (also known as secondary

colors):– Cyan, Magenta, Yellow (CMY)– Color printer works by using cyan, magenta, yellow and black

(CMYK) dyes

Color Representation Models

• Specify the tristimulus values associated with the three primarycolors– RGB– CMY

• Specify the luminance and chrominance– HSI (Hue, saturation, intensity)– YIQ (used in NTSC color TV)– YCbCr (used in digital color TV)

• Amplitude specification: – 8 bits for each color component, or 24 bits total for each pixel– Total of 16 million colors – A true RGB color display of size 1Kx1K requires a display buffer

memory size of 3 MB


Color Coordinate Conversion

• Conversion between different primary sets are linear (3x3 matrix)

• Conversion between primary and XYZ/YIQ/YUV are also linear

• Conversion to LSI/Lab are nonlinear– LSI and Lab coordinates

• coordinate Euclidean distance proportional to actual color difference

• Conversion formulae between many color coordinates can be found in [Gonzalez92]


Video Capture and Display

• Light reflection physics• Imaging operator• Color capture• Color display• Component vs. composite video


Video Capture

• For natural images we need a light source (λ: wavelength of the source) .

– E(x, y, z, λ): incident light on a point (x, y, z world coordinates of the point)

• Each point in the scene has a reflectivity function.

– r(x, y, z, λ): reflectivity function

• Light reflects from a point and the reflected light is captured by an imaging device.

– c(x, y, z, λ) = E(x, y, z, λ) × r(x, y, z, λ): reflected light.

Video Display

• CRT vs LCD• Need three light sources projecting red, green, blue

components respectively


Analog Video

• Video raster• Progressive vs. interlaced raster• Analog TV systems


Raster Scan

• Real-world scene is a continuous 3-D signal (temporal, horizontal, vertical)

• Analog video is stored in the raster format– Sampling in time: consecutive sets of frames

• To render motion properly, >=30 frame/s is needed– Sampling in vertical direction: a frame is represented by a

set of scan lines• Number of lines depends on maximum vertical frequency and

viewing distance, 525 lines in the NTSC system– Video-raster = 1-D signal consisting of scan lines from

successive frames


Progressive and Interlaced Scans

Field 1 Field 2

Progressive Frame Interlaced Frame

Interlaced scan is developed to provide a trade-off between temporal and vertical resolution, for a given, fixed data rate (number of line/sec).

Why not using RGB directly?

• R,G,B components are correlated– Transmitting R,G,B components separately is redundant– More efficient use of bandwidth is desired

• RGB->YC1C2 transformation– Decorrelating: Y,C1,C2 are uncorrelated– C1 and C2 require lower bandwidth– Y (luminance) component can be received by B/W TV sets

• YIQ in NTSC– I: orange-to-cyan– Q: green-to-purple (human eye is less sensitive)

• Q can be further bandlimited than I– Phase=Arctan(Q/I) = hue, Magnitude=sqrt (I^2+Q^2) = saturation– Hue is better retained than saturation

Conversion between RGB and YIQ

Y = 0.299 R + 0.587 G + 0.114 BI = 0.596 R -0.275 G -0.321 BQ = 0.212 R -0.523 G + 0.311 B

TV signal bandwidth

• Luminance– Maximum vertical frequency (cycles/picture-height)= black and

white lines interlacing

– Maximum horizontal frequency (cycles/picture-width)

– Corresponding temporal frequency (cycles/second or Hz)

– For NTSC,

• Chrominance– Can be bandlimited significantly

• I: 1.5 MHz, Q: 0.5 MHz.

Bandwidth of Chrominance Signals

• Theoretically, for the same line rate, the chromiance signal can have as high frequency as the luminance signal

• However, with real video signals, the chrominance component typically changes much slower than luminance

• Furthermore, the human eye is less sensitive to changes in chrominance than to changes in luminance

• The eye is more sensitive to the orange-cyan range (I) (the color of face!) than to green-purple range (Q)

• The above factors lead to – I: bandlimitted to 1.5 MHz– Q: bandlimitted to 0.5 MHz


Multiplexing of Luminance and Chrominance

• Chrominance signal can be bandlimited – it usually has a narrower frequency span than the luminance and

the human eye is less sensitive to high frequencies in chrominance• The two chrominance components (I and Q) are multiplexed

onto the same sub-carrier using QAM– The upper band of I is limited to 0.5 MHz to avoid interference with

audio• Position the bandlimited chrominance at the high end spectrum

of the luminance, where the luminance is weak, but still sufficiently lower than the audio (at 4.5 MHz=286 fl)

• The actual position should be such that the peaks of chrominance spectrum interlace with those of the luminance

Luminance/Chrominance Separation

• In low-end TV receivers, a low pass filter with cut-off frequency at 3MHz is typically used to separate the luminance and chrominance signal. – The high frequency part of the I component (2 to 3 Mhz) is still

retained in the luminance signal. – The extracted chrominance components can contain significant

luminance signal in a scene with very high frequency (luminance energy is not negligible near fc)

– These can lead to color bleeding artifacts • For better quality, a comb filter can be used, which will filter out

harmonic peaks correspond to chrominance signals.• Show example of comb filter on board


What will a Monochrome TV see?

• The monochrome TV receiver uses a LPT with cut-off at 4.2 MHz, and thus will get the composite video (baseband luminance plus the I and Q signal modulated to fc =3.58 MHz)– Because the modulated chrominance signal is at very high

frequency (227.5 cycles per line), the eye smoothes it out mostly, but there can be artifacts

– The LPF in Practical TV receivers have wide transition bands, and the response is already quite low at fc.

Video Terminology

• Component video– Three color components stored/transmitted separately – Use either RGB or YIQ (YUV) coordinate– New digital video format (YCrCb)– Betacam (professional tape recorder) use this format

• Composite video– Convert RGB to YIQ (YUV)– Multiplexing YIQ into a single signal– Used in most consumer analog video devices

• S-video– Y and C (QAM of I and Q) are stored separately– Used in high end consumer video devices

• High end monitors can take input from all three
